I Was Mistaken as a Monstrous Genius Actor Chapter 232

( Growth (5) )

Black piano in the music room. It felt quite old. Kang Woo-jin quietly looks down at the piano. He, whose face was hard due to his concept, was looking back on the past.

To be exact, from the time I acquired piano skills until now.

‘Seup – Now that I think about it, I just gained the ability but never used it.’

Well, it was rare to find a place with a piano, and there weren’t many opportunities. Because my schedule was so busy, it was difficult to find time for myself. However, Kang Woo-jin’s strength in subspace is that his skills do not rust. Even at this very moment, Woojin was able to play the piano in front of him with excitement.

When I thought of the piano, the countless scores imprinted inside me and my emotions soared.

Kang Woo-jin’s fingers twitch for a moment.

It was because I was itching. I wanted to grab any of the saved ones and hit the keys. Gradually, the melody becomes absorbed into Kang Woo-jin’s mind. Although he didn’t press any keys, the piano melody played naturally in his head as if he was playing.

Next, Woojin.

-Sigh.

I glance behind me. It was bustling, but there was no sign of anyone coming in. Kang Woo-jin pressed the middle white key of the piano with his index finger.

-♬♪

A slightly rough sound rang out. It may not be a big deal to those who don’t know much, but it was clear to the ears of Kang Woo-jin, who already owns the ‘piano’.

‘The sound is dying. ‘Are they not maintaining the piano at all?’

This was the case not only with the piano but with all the instruments in this music room. Because quite a bit of dust had accumulated. Hmm – Woojin, who was sighing softly, felt that it was a waste. Well, since I gained the ability, I should try demonstrating it, but this was a bit disappointing.

‘I’m also filming.’

We are already full of illusions and misunderstandings, so what harm will it do to add a few more? It was also Kang Woo-jin who had nothing to do with it. It’s just a matter of location.

anyway.

-Suuuuu.

This time, Kang Woo-jin pressed the keys with three fingers in succession. The piano was old, but it still produced sound steadily. I felt a little emotional, perhaps because I had improved my piano skills. Woojin thought that there was something special about the piano.

Around this time, at the door of the music room behind Kang Woo-jin.

“Ah, Mr. Woojin, you are here.”

“wait for a sec.”

“yes?”

The assistant director, director Kyotaro, and several actors, including Mifuyu Uramatsu, had just arrived, and just when the assistant director spotted Kang Woo-jin and was about to make a move, director Kyotaro stopped him. Then, he looked closely at Kang Woo-jin, who was alone in the music room, and spoke softly in Japanese.

“…The picture is nice-”

In his eyes, Kang Woo-jin in the music room looked like Kiyoshi Iyota. Among the settings of ‘Familiar Gisaeng’, there is a part where ‘Misaki Toka’ plays the piano well. Although it is explained briefly in the filming storyboard, there was a scene in the original where Toka teaches Kiyoshi how to play the piano.

‘Toka’s death. And Kiyoshi’s dry longing.’

Now, Director Kyotaro was drawing a new scene while watching Kang Woo-jin in the music room. Meanwhile, behind Director Kyotaro, Mifuyu and the actresses were whispering quietly.

“Woojin, do you know how to play the piano?”

“Eh, then it’s too much of a scam. “With that face, that acting, and even playing the piano… I don’t know, I can’t stand it.”

“Mifuyu. Heal the disease of liking men. “Every year we suffer from scandals.”

“no. “I like Woojin.”

“Okay, okay.”

At this time, Kang Woo-jin took his hand off the piano and turned around, perhaps sensing that he was being popular. Oh what. When did we get together? Woojin immediately put on a poker face and spoke in a low voice.

“I’m sorry, Director. “I looked around for a while.”

Director Kyotaro, who was laughing, shook his head.

“no. How about that? Are high school music rooms in Japan and Korea similar?”

“Almost all music rooms feel like this.”

“is it so? ha ha ha. But Woojin. “Do you even know how to play the piano?”

Woojin, who had an indifferent face, gave a short answer.

“Yes, a little.”

There’s no need to hide it. Anyway, Director Kyotaro’s eyes lit up.

“Oh, really?”

“yes.”

“Then can you give it a try later? “It’s not because I’m curious, but because ‘Kiyoshi’ could be used in a movie.”

“It doesn’t matter.”

“thank you. “I’ll come up with a cut later and talk about it again.”

“All right.”

Soon, Director Kyotaro’s radio heard the staff shouting that preparations were complete. The assistant director attached himself to Kang Woo-jin, and director Kyotaro turned and moved to the scene. At this time, Mifuyu, with her plump lips, came close to me and asked.

“Director. “Woojin, are you good at playing the piano??”

Director Kyotaro laughed slightly.

“I said a little bit, so I guess I only have the basics.”

Two days later, Friday the 29th.

News of Kang Woo-jin in Japan has increased.

『Is it true that “Kang Woo-jin” is entering Hollywood? Even in the Japanese entertainment industry , the story of ‘our table’ was included in the rumor about

entering Hollywood.

『Korean entertainment show “Our Table” starring the hot Kang Woo-jin exceeds 17% viewership rating” There

has been a sudden increase in the number of edited videos of ‘Our Table’ on YouTube in Japan. Meanwhile, Kang Woo-jin was found at the top-class ‘Kasihi Tokyo Hotel’ in Tokyo. The time is around 6pm. Kang Woo-jin gets off the van in the parking tower attached to the hotel.

-Sigh.

Woojin wore a hoodie and duffel coat and had full makeup on. Her hair was neatly slicked back. This is because I was doing a photo shoot for a Japanese magazine from morning until about an hour ago. The filming took longer than expected, but we finished it before 7 o’clock anyway.

‘Wow – I’m sore. It’s already dark. Time flies.’

The reason why Kang Woo-jin, who had an indifferent face but was secretly amazed by the quick time, came to ‘Kashihi Tokyo Hotel’ as soon as he finished the photo shoot was simple. It was to join the ‘unfamiliar’ team. Currently, ‘Familiar Gisaeng’ has moved to Tokyo after filming the past scenes, and the location chosen for the hotel cut was ‘Kashihi Tokyo Hotel’.

There was no need for this ‘Kashihi Tokyo Hotel’, but thanks to Chairman Hideki’s consideration, it was not difficult to get invited.

‘Kashihi Tokyo Hotel’ is one of the best hotels in Japan. However, since he had been there during the script reading for ‘Familiar Gisaeng’, Kang Woo-jin was not impressed by the grand appearance of the hotel. Woojin calmly walked away. Team members such as Choi Seong-geon and Han Ye-jeong were yawning to the side.

Choi Seong-gun opens his mouth first.

“It’s tough, it’s tough. Are you okay, Woojin?”

“Yes, no problem.”

“Anyway, he’s like the Terminator.”

Seong-geon Choi, the ponytail-haired man, shakes his head as if he’s tired of it.

“I said filming starts tomorrow, right? I heard that director Kyotaro and the actors have already arrived at the restaurant. “You can go right away too.”

“Yes, representative.”

The real thing starts tomorrow. However, because the convocation was early, accommodation was set at a hotel, and director Kyotaro and the Japanese actors seemed to be gathered at a restaurant. It was for dinner, and dozens of staff members used it sooner than that.

Anyway, Kang Woo-jin entered the hotel lobby from the parking tower.

Among the crowd of people in the spacious and luxurious lobby, the eyes of customers who recognized Woojin poured out. Here, Kang Woo-jin’s team members were missing. And Choi Seong-gun, who was standing in front of the elevator with Woojin, yawned again and declared retreat.

“Aww, that’s not possible. I’ll just go to the front of the restaurant with you and then I’ll go to my room early and get some rest. “Rice is also rice, so you have to live with it.”

“Yes, CEO. rest.”

“Uh oh. “After eating, if anything happens, call me right away.”

By the time Kang Woo-jin answered appropriately, quite a few people had gathered waiting for the elevator. About five. Everyone glanced at Kang Woo-jin. Finally, two people were added. A girl and her mother in a wheelchair. What’s unusual is that the girl in the wheelchair’s eyes widen when she sees Kang Woo-jin.

At this time.

-Ding!

The elevator opened on the first floor. The elevator carrying everyone moved upwards vigorously, and what broke the somewhat quiet situation was a girl in a wheelchair.

“…Over there! hello!”

Everyone in the elevator, including Choi Seong-gun and Kang Woo-jin, turned their gaze to her. The girl was clearly looking up at Kang Woo-jin. The eyes were sparkling.

“Kang Woo-jin! “My name is Asami Yusako!”

The girl’s mother bowed her head politely to Woojin.

“sorry. “He is a fan of Kang Woo-jin, so I think he was very surprised when we suddenly met him.”

Unlike the girl, who clearly looked embarrassed, her mother seemed relaxed. Soon Woojin lowered his head and made eye contact with the girl in the wheelchair. I guess he was about 15 years old? Her face was without makeup, but her cheeks were red and she was wearing glasses. The girl who introduced herself as Asami Yusako avoids looking at Woojin, as if she is embarrassed by his gaze.

Woojin immediately thought of his younger sister, Kang Hyun-ah. Kang Hyun-ah also wore glasses when she was young.

‘Are you studying well? ‘I guess I’ll have to make a phone call after eating.’

Woojin, who was Yusako Asami’s younger sister, bent down and extended his hand to her. And then he spoke softer than usual.

“Nice to meet you, my name is Kang Woo-jin.”

The frozen Yusako trembled slightly, but barely managed to hold Woojin’s hand.

“It’s like a dream…. Oh my! I always check Woojin Kang’s SNS and YouTube! I also watched Hanryang and ‘Boyfriend’ a lot! “I plan to watch ‘Familiar’ at least 5 times!”

Her mother helped out.

“It’s his birthday today so we went out to eat with the family and I got a big gift. Thank you.”

Choi Seong-geon, who had vaguely grasped the atmosphere, smiled warmly and handed the diary and pen he had been wearing at his side to Woo-jin. Kang Woo-jin, who let go of Yusako, asked the girl while signing the diary paper.

“What is your dream?”

“I’ve achieved it now!”

“No, not like that. “What I want to become.”

“yes?? iced coffee! Oh my! Voice actor! “My mom is also a voice actor.”

Kang Woo-jin, who handed over the signed paper to Yusako, asked again.

“is it so? “Is there a work you like?”

“ah! For me, ‘Howl is a Moving Castle’!”

‘Howl’s Moving Castle’ was an animation created by a master Japanese director and was famous both in Korea and around the world. Of course, Kang Woo-jin also knew. Woojin said, reaching out his hand to the girl again.

“huh. I will support you. “Thank you for liking me.”

“……Ah no! thank you! “I will support Kang Woo-jin for the rest of my life!!”

About this way.

-Ding!

The elevator opened on the floor where the restaurant was. The first ones to get off were the girl in the wheelchair and her mother. After repeatedly greeting Kang Woo-jin, he walked away toward the restaurant and Choi Seong-geon, who was watching them together with Woo-jin, muttered.

“They said it was a birthday meal out, and I saw one over there. Anyway, that child will remember today’s birthday for the rest of his life.”

Kang Woo-jin felt his heart warm slightly. What can I say, my satisfaction with my current job has increased significantly?

‘There aren’t many jobs that give you lifelong memories just by sharing a few words.’

Although he was a talented actor, Kang Woo-jin felt refreshed. But facial expression management. Woojin then signed autographs for other people in the elevator.

-Sigh.

We barely made it to the restaurant. At the entrance, Choi Seong-geon retreated to his room and Woo-jin was guided by the restaurant staff. Luxurious round tables and chairs in mostly white tones, numerous staff, and almost full customers. Classical music flowing gently throughout the restaurant.

As it was indeed a restaurant in a high-end hotel, the interior was jaw-dropping in size.

Among them, the table that Kang Woo-jin was guided to was by the window with a clear view of the night view of Tokyo. At the adjacent table, which attracted the attention of many customers, a group of ‘unfamiliars’ were already chatting and eating. Roughly fifteen people. The person who discovered Woojin first was the gray-faced director Kyotaro.

“Ah, Mr. Woojin. this way.”

As he sat down and raised his hand, Japanese actors such as Kosaku Mifuyu Yasuta turned their heads. Everyone welcomed Kang Woo-jin.

“Woojin, you’re here!”

“Here here! Woojin, you can sit here next to me!”

Thanks to the passionate appeal of Mifuyu, an actress with plump lips, Kang Woo-jin, who had a poker face, sat next to her. A seat with your back to the window. The appearance of Woojin immediately lifted the mood of the Japanese actors.

Questions are asked regardless of male or female actors.

“Did you finish the photo shoot well??”

“I can’t get used to not being Kiyoshi- But Woojin, why does your skin look so good?”

“What did you film? “Oh, you shouldn’t say that.”

“Woojin, would you like some wine?”

Kang Woo-jin answered calmly and appropriately. Director Kyotaro took over the baton.

“Woojin’s first shoot tomorrow. “I’m on standby from 7 a.m., so it might be a little tight, but please take care of me.”

“Yes, Director.”

Woojin bowed his head slightly and looked away while drinking water. While looking around the restaurant where many customers were crowded, I found a girl in a wheelchair near the entrance. It was Asami Yusako. Woojin’s eyes, who had been looking at her for a moment, move again. This time it was in the very center of the restaurant.

For some reason, Woojin, who was watching the center closely, let out a small sigh and scratched his chin.

‘Um-what does it matter? Let’s ask first.’

Kang Woo-jin made eye contact with director Kyotaro. Then he suddenly got up. Director Kyotaro, his eyes widening slightly, opened his mouth.

“Woojin, where – ah, the bathroom?”

Meanwhile, a table near the entrance.

A girl in a wheelchair. No, Asami Yusako was constantly bragging to her father, who had already taken a table and was waiting.

“I’m holding your hand!” Kang Woo-jin is really, really, really handsome, cool, gentle, and perfect!”

The girl’s father smiled awkwardly.

“That’s right.”

“I don’t think I can wash my hands! “Look at this, he also signed an autograph.”

“Is it that good?”

“huh! great.”

“……”

My mother smiled at the husband’s silence.

“why? “Do you feel like you’re getting your daughter married?”

“little?”

At this time, the father saw Kang Woo-jin walking between the tables behind his daughter. It was indeed an aura that I wanted to learn from. All the guests make a fuss when they see him. I understood my daughter’s reaction. Dad looked away from Woojin and scratched his head.

“Ha-”

Yusako laughed as she looked at Woojin’s autograph on the table, forgetting to eat.

“I have to brag to my friends.”

“Yusako, why don’t you open the gift your father gave you?”

“thank you!”

“…I don’t even know what it is.”

At this moment, the classical music that had been spreading throughout the restaurant stopped. The guests tilted their heads.

“hmm??”

“what?”

And then.

-♬♪

A calm piano melody began to play. It was heard from the very center of the restaurant. As soon as they heard the soft introduction, the eyes of all the guests in the restaurant widened. It was natural. Because it was a song that no Japanese person would know.

No, it was famous all over the world, including Korea.

“Oh- this song!”

“Who is it? “I guess you hit it yourself?”

“That guy over there. uh! But that man…”

The soft piano melody gradually became quieter and sweeter.

Yusako, who had been delirious, raised her head and shouted.

“uh! ‘Howl’s Moving Castle’ OST! ‘The merry-go-round of life’!!”

Because it was a song I really liked. It felt like fate because it was the OST for the work that Kang Woo-jin had mentioned earlier. Even the audible piano melody is of such high quality.

-♬♪

Yusako turned her head backwards. However, she immediately stops when she spots someone in the center of the restaurant.

“uh? Huh??”

Many customers were already staring at the center of the restaurant, forgetting to eat.

“Wow…”

“Three worlds.”

and.

“Oh, is it really this song? ‘The merry-go-round of life.’”

The actors at the ‘Familiar’ team table began to get drunk on the piano melody along with the wine.

“that’s right. I really like ‘Howl’s Moving Castle’. “It’s good-”

“I also listen to ‘Carousel of Life’ at least once a day. Wow, he plays it really well.”

At this time, the piano melody heard in the center gradually began to speed up. It has reached its climax.

Some actors close their eyes and watch it.

however.

“……ah.”

Mifuyu, with full lips, stopped moving, looking behind the actors in front. The same goes for the two male and female actors sitting next to her. Yasta, holding a wine glass across from Mifuyu, asked.

“Mifuyu, what’s wrong?”

Mifuyu, whose eyes seemed to pop out, slowly raised her index finger.

“Hey-”

“Huh?”

Only at this time did the entire cast turn and focus their gaze on the center of the restaurant. Director Kyotaro, who was busy on the phone, did the same, and the ‘Familiar’ team discovered the main character of the piano melody.

A white piano located in the center of the restaurant.

A black-haired man sitting at the piano and playing ‘Life is a Merry-Go-Round’ from ‘Howl’s Moving Castle’.

“……Woo Woojin?”

It was Kang Woo-jin. He was playing the piano. Although he simply pressed the keys, the melody that spread throughout the restaurant was delicate yet amazing. Dozens of customers inside the restaurant, including the ‘unfamiliar’ team, froze.

-♬♪

No, my soul was stolen.
